And the Hits Just Keep on Coming

ISIS Hijacks Swedish Radio Station To Play 30 Minutes Of Propaganda [More]
This is ISLM AD 570 coming at you with number one on the charts this week, here's the fatwah four with their latest smash single, "I Wanna Hold Your Head."

Just Looked Up



First snow of the season...

I'm gonna go take a walk. Back in a bit.

What to Do


That depends. [More]

It doesn't always default to waiting on the "OnlyOnes."

It might just be in my best interests to take my chances with slipping away quietly.

Ain't no "one size fits all."

Testing, 1-2-3...


It looks like 2 and 3 need some work... [More]

Just thank your lucky stars they get it right when it counts.

At This Rate

There's No Such Thing as an "American" Homicide Rate [More]
And, of course, even the use of state rates masks more inconvenient truths.

What's in a Name?


Plenty, when you want to mask an agenda. [More]

What If...?

What do we do about it? [More]
That uncertainty is what has kept them from going full retard on us, meaning just as the likelihood of encountering arms in private hands deters individual aggressors, so too does that work on a societal scale. 2A may be on cruise control, but it's still somewhat working.

Imagine if it were revived and invigorated.

Webb's Daughter Weighs In


[More]
Has there ever been a time in this troll's life where she has not been protected by an armed security detail wherever she goes?

A Leap of Faith

Faith Hill Wants the NRA to Tell the Truth About Guns [More]
I'd like to see her tell the truth about her private security.

It's not exactly a surprise that country music has its share of Dixie Chicks. That whole Woody Guthrie thing was pure Marxism.

I see Brad and Carrie had to add their two kopecks. He looks so sincere and true to his artistic integrity whoring himself for an insurance conglomerate, doesn't he?

I'd like to see that whole scene next up on the sex abuse scandal publicity list. Beyond Kirt Webster.

And Your Point Is?

Bernstein sells the kinds of guns used the Sutherland Texas, Las Vegas and Columbine High School mass shootings [More]
Yes, they actually said that. And yes, there will be those who are shocked.

[Via Jess]

The Reality of the Situation

The only way you're going to get those people's firearms is to murder them first. [More]
And are we supposed to just wait our turn?

[Via Florida Guy]   

Never Happened


Honest reporting on hate crime hoaxes (or plenty of other topics for that matter) fromThe Washington Post, that is... [More]

[Via Michael G]

Works for Me


The only thing I'd add would be to make their native country pay for trial and incarceration costs if it comes to that. [More]

Two Out of Three Ain't Bad


CUSTER COUNTY BALLOT RESULTS: THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN [More]
And there's more on that, as well as past Sentinel developments, here.

Double Jeopardy

Bad Guys Steal Man's Gun, Man Pulls Second Gun, Shoots Bad Guys [More]
There's a lesson about making assumptions in here. And in the value of not putting all eggs in one basket.

[Via Florida Guy]   

A Hail Mary

An organization headed by former Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-Ariz.) has sued the Trump administration in an effort to see any communications between officials and the National Rifle Association. [More]
So can we do the same with the Obama and Clinton administrations?

This is sound and fury. This is for headlines in the absence of relevance.

[Via Bluesgal]

The Cross Street is Sipsey

The Mohave County Board of Supervisors gave the green light Monday to rename a section of Yellowstone Road to LaVoy Finicum Road... [More]
What's up, Buster?

Y'ever hear the word "aptronym"?

[Via Bluesgal]

Disenfranchising Illegals

Thousands of Arizonans are being denied the right to vote by the way the state is handling voter registration applications that don’t provide proof of citizenship, according to a new lawsuit. [More]
Yes, it's come to this. And watch some federal judge agree.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue," eh, Wayne? Chris? Grover...?

Anyone? Bueller...?

[Via Bluesgal]

An Uneven Playing Field

Dr. Edeen Challenges a Colleague’s Firearm Foolishness [More]
Not that The Dallas Morning News is interested in presenting a complete rebuttal to a gun quack.

And there's the rub. The lies get mass dissemination. The truth is confined to a much smaller niche readership.

And maddeningly, most within that niche -- the very people who would benefit from wider exposure for the truth -- won't lift a finger to share it.

WTF, Trump?

President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Homeland Security says “we owe” amnesty to the nearly 700,000 illegal aliens who are shielded from deportation under the expiring DACA amnesty. [More]
Why not just reappoint Jeh Johnson?

We're the Only Ones Mum Enough

Even now, John Filippidis has no idea how the officer learned about his concealed-carry permit, and the MTAP isn’t saying. [More]
This story is a few years old, but I just came across it and it's still relevant because it illustrates yet one more danger of seeking permission for rights.

It also once more illustrates monopoly of violence rule by Opposite Day "progressives" in action -- because nothing says "public safety" like giving elitist sociopathic, oath-breaking thugs a badge and a gun.

See what happened when wifey tried "to be helpful"? I know we shouldn't blame the victims, but good grief.

And no surprise we weren't told "the officer's" name...

But Don't Just Take It from Me...

Reviews & Ratings for Lies of Omission [More]
I thought you should see this before any antis get wind of it.

You got your copy, right? And are on board with "The Vanderboegh Tapes" (and Part Two)?

And you've helped spread the word?

All the Moore Reasons

Roy Moore scandal in Alabama might slow Bannon’s insurgency, GOP leaders hope [More]
You know it. And it's the people who trusted him and who want their country back who will be hurt the most.

WaPo went to extraordinary lengths to jump on this story and to present the women at its center -- and their reasons for not coming forward sooner -- as credible. I suspect someone is digging into that to profile them and to reveal what was left out. I also suspect, perceiving more pay dirt, his enemies are already digging deeper and wider.

As an aside, I wish they'd put similar energy into Fast and Furious, instead of ignoring and then minimizing it.

As another aside, I see a lot of Moore apologists knee-jerk concluding this is a hit and smear job of no substance.  We need facts to do that. We need to be the ones who value truth above all else.

He either did it or he didn't. 

If we start seeing high-level defections from his camp, it could tell us the people closest to him have not been convinced his principles advance theirs. If he did it, there's no doubt he will have done tremendous damage to "the cause," and no one will be happier than the swamp creatures. He will deserve all that he gets and more, for past crimes and for inducing good people to follow him while knowingly exposing them -- and the country -- to such a catastrophic potential outcome.

If he did not do it, those saying he did should pay for it. In full.

This must be resolved.  Having it hanging over him throughout the campaign will mean one of two things: He will not do the right thing, or the liars will have succeeded.

I just don't see an alternative candidate stepping into this mess, meaning the only "good" way out is total vindication, and soon.
